G#5                                F5
Weeds blow tall on a broken train track
G#5                               F5
Ruth B' draws were fixin' to get high
G#5                                                         F5
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum


G5
But everybody says this place is beautiful
A5
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
G5
But everything's the same this town is pitiful
A5                                        G5
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly


G5            F5
Life goes by on a Talihina Sky


G#5                                       F5
The hopped up boys are looking for their trouble
G#5                                               F5
The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share
G#5                                                        F5
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
